05Aerospace
Robotic automation for aerospace manufacturing
Aerospace is one of the specialties ARS lists. Low-volume, high-value work is engineered to a stated machine capacity, with fabrication and CNC machining in house.
- Load
- Drill and fasten
- Seal
- Inspect
- Unload
01Demands
What aerospace asks of a line
Large parts and tight tolerances
Wing, fuselage and engine parts are big, yet every hole and fastener has to land within tight limits.
Low volume, high mix
Many part numbers run in small quantities, so a cell has to switch jobs without long setups.
Traceable process records
Each drilled hole, fastener and seal may need a record that ties it back to its part.
A high cost per scrapped part
A scrapped part carries the cost of its material and of all the work already done on it.
02Applications
Where automation fits
03ARS
What ARS brings
3D concepts and load analysis
3D drawing tools create each concept, then load analysis determines machine capacity.
Fabrication and CNC
ARS provides custom metal fabrication and CNC machining services, and an equipment list is available on request.
Simulation for reach
Fully dynamic 3D simulation, offered for multiple robot models, checks reach before hardware is committed.
Vision
ARS is fluent in robotic vision systems, which it uses to simplify automation processes.
04Proof
A listed specialty
ARS lists Automotive, Aerospace, Defense, Food & Beverage and Pharmaceutical among its specialties.
